Why Does Socail Class Influence Parent Involvemet

From my point of view, it seems like parents do not stress education enough today. Most of the reason is how they were brought up themselves. I think that explanation #1 values plays the most important role today. The majority of parents do not seem to understand how important their child's education is. It is a much different story for the most part from when they were in school twenty-thirty years ago. The result today will be education failures; therefore, more students will have to be held back because they just can not stay on or above par with the other students. Another reason why parents do not take education seriously enough is that some parents were able to work around education (years back) and have not put much thought into their children' s future probably thinking the same for them too. However, today an extremely small amount of people are able to succeed without education. It is like the key to success, a must have in today's society. There is no substitution for education.
